Charity to feed the poor hit by £700 bill after attacks

A Glasgow charity that provides aid for children in poverty stricken countries has been targeted by vandals.

Mary's Meals is counting the cost of a spate of attacks at their premises in the Balmore Industrial Estate, in the north of the city.

Van windows were smashed and the warehouse daubed in graffiti.

The repair bill is likely to reach £700, which means hundreds of children could have been fed a daily meal from the money the charity will have to pay out.

Full story at the Evening Times.
